SCRATCH RULE
The Scratch Rule to be used in all Georgia LSC sanctioned meets where the meet format includes preliminary heats, consolation
finals and finals, is the "Scratch Rule" as found under “Administrative Conduct of USA Swimming Championships”, subsection
“Scratch Procedures”, subsections “Scratching from finals” and “Exceptions for failure to compete”, of the current “USA
Swimming Rules and Regulations”. An excerpt is provided below.
Scratching from finals:
(1) Any swimmer qualifying for a C, B, or A (bonus and consolation final or) final race in an individual event who fails
to compete in said final shall be barred from further competition for the remainder of the meet, except as noted in paragraph E. A
declared false start under 101.1.3F or deliberate delay of meet under101.1.5 is not permitted and will be regarded as a failure to
compete. (2) In the event of withdrawal or barring of a swimmer from competition the Referee shall fill the C, B, or A (bonus
and consolation final or) final, when possible, with the next qualified swimmer(s). First and second alternates shall be announced
along with the final qualifiers. These alternates shall not be penalized if unavailable to compete in the finals.
(3) Where C and B (bonus and consolation) finals have not been swum and a barring or withdrawal is known to the
Referee, the Referee shall reseed the C, B, or A (bonus final, consolation final and the) final, if necessary, to insert the
alternate(s) in the appropriate lane(s), filling all lanes in the final.
(4) If the C or B (bonus and consolation) final has already been contested, the (championship) final shall be swum
without reseeding for the empty lane(s).
Exceptions for failure to compete:
No penalty shall apply for failure to withdraw or compete in an individual event if:
(1) The Referee is notified in the event of illness or injury and accepts the proof thereof.
(2) A swimmer qualifying for a C, B or A (bonus or consolation final or) final race based upon the results of
the preliminaries notifies the Referee within thirty (30) minutes after announcement of the qualifiers for that race that they may
not intend to compete and further declares their final intentions within thirty (30) minutes following their last individual
